That whole article is insanity. I guess I've had my head in the ground because that's the first I've heard of Terron Boone but his half-brother dying at the hands of the police seems very suspicious.

A few articles I read about this incident included a snippet of the Terron Boone shooting. Here's an article that contains information I've seen in a few places. I'd like to see what comes of the investigation but looks like he was pulled over in connection with a kidnapping and assault investigation and when pulled over shot at the deputies. I'm hoping for some type of video to surface though because "None of the deputies or their vehicles had cameras to document the incident"...

Stoking divisiveness and making us fight with one another. Soros would be proud.

“The individual then produced a handgun, and then began running southbound away from the deputies through businesses nearby. Deputies engaged in a short foot pursuit between the two businesses, at some point the deputies contacted the suspect and that’s when the deputy-involved shooting occurred.”

Read a few articles, some mention an unmarked handgun was recovered with large-capacity magazine. Gun can be see in this report

Apparently the owner says that the security system wasn't on...

lol. Not a security guard. Just a dude that hung around. There was a shooting on that exact spot a couple weeks prior and when police entered the autoshop they found drugs and a weapon. Make of that what you will.
